Default Rattling Headrest

My driver's seat headrest has started to rattle. I can't tell for sure where the rattle is coming from - the shafts that extend into the seat, or the swivel mechanism within the headrest. Anyone else experience this and have any luck getting rid of it?<p>Thanks,<br>Kyle

Default I just lowered mine...

My passenger side headrest was rattling. It took me a while to find out... it was always there. Since we are tall people around here, all my headrests are all the way to the top. The passenger side is two notches below max, and the rattle is gone.<p>Your mileage may vary, but it's a start...<p>- Stan<br>

Default I've notice that same problem w/my passenger headrest!

Initially, I thought it was coming from the passenger rear door! Then I discovered it was coming from the headrest! Anyway, I usually just kinda played w/it(wiggled it/moved it) and it went away. I'm sure it will be back, though! <p>JT 99' 1.8Tqms
